Even the clans at war in Ponticelli ended up in the maxi blitz against the Casalesi that started this morning in the provinces of Naples, Caserta and Salerno.
A laundering of over 100 million euros thanks to a 'refined mind', who had devised the mega-scam knowing by heart all the economic systems and ways to circumvent controls and laws, the 'friendly' entrepreneurs who issued thousands of invoices for non-existent operations, creating reserves of money.
Then the 'accountants' who issued transfers until reaching a turnover of 100 million euros. And finally the cash dispensers, who every day withdraw money from ATMs little by little, until reaching 55 thousand euros a day. Here is the system set up by the Casale, thanks to colluding 'white collars' and 89 companies totally subjugated to the rules of the Camorra.
At the center of the investigation were Giuseppe Guarino and sister Luisa, relatives of Maurizio Capoluongo, boss of the Casalesi of the Zagaria faction, who was in prison for Camorra and murder and released in July. In the criminal conspiracy aimed at money laundering, everyone had their role. Some issued invoices, some made transfers, some withdrew and brought money to the clan's homes, little by little and untraceable by the banking and postal system.
The blitz also hit the De Martino clan, infamous Xx linked to the De Micco “Bodo” of Ponticelli. but also the rivals of the Casella allies of the De Luca Bossa Minichini.
Also in prison are Luigi Austero and his offspring Nicola Aulisio, Giovanni Rinaldi, Giovanni Mignano and Youssef Christian Hathrouby. Also inside Salvatore DeMartino, new regent of the clan based in the popular Fiat district and his wife Maria, Francis Pignatiello and his son Pasquale.
Among the recipients of the arrest warrants, issued because the risk of escape was deemed to exist, are Eduardo and Giuseppe Casella, both believed to belong to the De Luca Bossa-Minichini-Casella criminal cartel.
The investigators of the Public Prosecutor's Office (the prosecutors Fratello and Rossi) are contesting the crime of extortion perpetrated against a woman, who ran a drug dealing square, and against an illegal parking attendant. The investigations into the contested episodes have accelerated after the serious bloody events of the past few days and weeks. In the first case, the woman victim of extortion was violently beaten to force her to join a rival clan. The other, the one against a parking attendant, is considered by the investigators to be an emblematic episode of the desire of organized crime to keep the territory in the eastern part of the city under widespread control.
The investigations allowed the identification of 11 individuals, recipients of the precautionary measure of detention in prison, who managed the companies, the current accounts and coordinated the network of "snitches" (52 individuals of which 37 recipients of the measures of house arrest and 15 of the obligation to report to the judicial police).
The sums withdrawn then ended up with members of the Casalesi clan in order to provide for the sustenance of several families of prisoners of the same clan. Involved in the execution of the operation were approximately 200 soldiers of the Guardia di Finanza belonging to the Special Currency Police Unit of Rome and the Provincial Commands of the Guardia di Finanza of Naples, Caserta and Salerno.
